Windows – How to remap Home Button key with Escape key on Apple keyboard

bluetoothkeyboardkeyboard shortcutskeyboard-layoutwindows 8.1

I bought a bluetooth keyboard for $13, and it's pretty good except instead of the Esc key, there's a little square and it opens up Internet Explorer when it's pressed! I've tried 3 key remapping programs, and NONE worked, they either say that the key is not supported or it's disabled… I have no idea what to do, I am a gamer so the Esc key is crucial for me.

This is a picture of it:

On KeyTweak, it wouldn't even fetch the key in KeyMapper it would just open a new browser window. I've tried pressing Function and that Esc button, control and the escape button, etc.

I had the same problem. Here is how I solved:

  • download and install autohotkey

  • create an .ahk file with this content:

    Browser_Home::Esc
    
  • save & run it
